Divers from Dive World San Antonio ventured out to the Texas Clipper today, the seas were calm and the weather was great. The visibility has improved to 50+ feet and we didn’t encounter the thermocline until 65 feet. The surface temperature was 85 degrees and at depth it was 76 degrees. The Lion Fish sightings continue and we slayed another today. We tried to get some of the resident marine life to take interest in the latest victim but didn’t get any takers.

August 18, 2013Calm seas and beautiful weather at the Clipper today, the surface temperature was 85 degrees but at 50 feet it dropped to 75 degrees. The visibility was only about 30 feet but the divers had a great time, during the 2nd dive 2 Lion Fish were spotted hanging out in one of the davit arms; pictured below are the before and after photos, the small one was able to evade the spear and will unfortunately live another day.
